Parameter name
Setting range
Description
Position
Before, After
Sets connection position of EFX module to “Before” (before PREAMP) or “After” (after
PREAMP).
Sense
-10 – -1, 1 – 10
Adjusts auto wah sensitivity.
Resonance
0 – 10
Adjusts resonance intensity.
Level
2 – 100
Adjusts signal level after passing module.
Depth
0 – 100
Adjusts modulation depth.
Rate
0 – 50 e (Table 1)
Adjusts modulation rate. Using rhythm tempo as reference, setting in note units is also
possible.
Wave
Up 0 – 9, Down 0 – 9,Tri0 – 9
Sets modulation waveform to “Up” (rising sawtooth), “Down” (falling sawtooth), or
“Tri” (triangular). Higher values result in stronger clipping, emphasizing the effect.

Selects sound type.
Frequency
Ring Modulator: 1 – 50
Adjusts frequency used for modulation.
Fix-Wah: 1 – 50
Adjusts wah center frequency. Can also be controlled by pedal.
